At the AGM I announced that I would not be continuing as Group Organiser after the next
AGM in May 2017.  It is important that if the Group is to continue that someone steps
forward to take on the role of Group Organiser.  If this does not happen Coeliac UK will
suspend our Group including all our funds.  This was one of the reasons I took over in the
first place to enable the Group to continue.  The Group now has 9 months to resolve this
issue and if somebody comes forward I am willing to work with them to make the
transition as smooth as possible.  I have come to this decision because of personal reasons
not allowing me as much time as I wish or is needed but I will remain a member of the
Group and will help in an advisory capacity in the interim period
